Endovascular Interventions for Acute and Chronic Aortic Pathology

The UCLA Symposium on Endovascular Treatment of Aortic Pathology is sponsored by the UCLA Aortic Center and is a one day self-assessment CME course exploring the advancements in endovascular technology available for treatment of aortic disease. It will focus on patient selection, evaluation, imaging, and combined approaches for management and care of patients with aortic pathology. Simulation to acquire and improve endovascular skills for performance of endovascular repair of aortic pathology will be available for physicians attending the symposium. Specific sessions for allied health care personnel, in particular, nurses, nurse practitioners, and physicians assistants will be presented to cover critical information in the preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative management of patients with aortic conditions.
